LOVE and Joy

• JESUS, THOU JOY OF LOVING HEARTS • Attributed to Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091–1153 • Translated by Ray Palmer, 1808–1887 • I have told you this so that My joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. (John 15:11) • This song is another of the fine hymn texts that originated during the Middle Ages. It is thought to have been written by a monk—one of the most prominent religious leaders of his day.
